openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Bee Maps (Hivemapper) Developer Account Bursts API version: '1.0' x-generated: '2026-07-19' x-method: generated x-source: https://docs.beemaps.com/api-reference description: The Bee Maps (Hivemapper) Developer API delivers fresh street-level imagery, ML-detected map features, AI event videos, and on-demand mapping (Bursts) from the world's largest decentralized dashcam network. Data is queried by point, polygon, or linestring and billed on a two-tier model (API credits per query plus per-view USD metering for signed imagery URLs). Requests are limited to a maximum query area of 5 sq km and use GeoJSON [longitude, latitude] coordinate order. This specification was generated faithfully from the public Bee Maps API reference; it is not a provider-published OpenAPI document. contact: name: Bee Maps email: hi@hivemapper.com url: https://docs.beemaps.com license: name: Bee Maps API Terms url: https://hivemapper.com/tos servers: - url: https://beemaps.com/api/developer description: Bee Maps Developer API (current) - url: https://hivemapper.com/api/developer description: Legacy Hivemapper Developer API host security: - basicAuth: [] - apiKeyQuery: [] tags: - name: Bursts description: On-demand incentivized mapping requests. paths: /burst/create: post: operationId: createBurst summary: Create an on-demand mapping burst description: Create incentivized mapping requests (Bursts) for specific locations.
